The goal was to bring hope and happiness to these youngsters during such a difficult time for their homeland
Sunday’s protest rally was the largest since authoritarian President Alexander Lukashenko won another term in a December 2010 election and intensified his crackdown on the opposition.
The opposition has traditionally held rallies on March 25 to mark the anniversary of Belarus’ short-lived declaration of independence from Russia in 1918.
Lukashenko’s government usually bans the rallies and sends police in to break them up.
This year, the protesters were allowed to gather peacefully, but each one had to pass through security controls and be photographed.
